I always have a bold pair of glasses ready to go when I’m looking to make the ultimate style statement.

I recommend pairing a monochrome outfit with a bold frame to make it pop and really stand out. For variety, I usually have a pair of classic frames on standby available for when I’m in the mood and my wardrobe calls for it.

I also keep a pair of glasses on my desk at work and I leave another pair at home so that I’m never caught short.

Finding the perfect frame to suit your face shape

Working as a Style Ambassador with the Specsavers team, I have discovered a lot when it comes to finding the perfect frame to match your face shape.

As a general rule – opposites attract.

If you have a rounder face, you should choose a rectangle frame to balance out your features. Similarly, if you have a square, chiselled features, it’s best to go for a round frame.

Cat's eye: Characterised by a rounded shape that extends to an upward point near the temple, the cat’s eye is both elegant and glamorous. Cat’s eye glasses are best suited to those with triangular or oval faces.

Square: The square shape is best suited for round, heart and oval face shapes.

Round: The round eye shape has been seen more and more in recent years and is particularly on trend right now. This frame shape is ideal for people with square, or heart-shaped faces.

Here are some more tips to help you find a style to suit your face shape and some of my top picks from the latest designer styles at Specsavers.

Round

A round face has fuller cheekbones and little to no angles, with the width and length being similarly proportionate.

Square

A square face is defined by a broad, deep forehead, a wide jaw and a square chin. Soften angular features with more rounded and oval frames. A frame such as these will provide soft lines to those with more angular face structures.
